HE A BN & KENNEDY. !» - War Eagle. The Thoroughbred Stallion War EaGle .is a dark brown horse with black points, stands 15 hands inches high ; bred by W. Gerrard, Esq.,, oj Rapid Bay, South Australia; . Pedigree :-rr-. WAR Eagle, by Tregeagle, imported, out of Orcleal, imported, by Touchstone out of Mrs Fowler, by Heron (sire of ■ Fisherman), g.g.d. by Mulcy out of sister to Pope, by Shuttle, Sec. ■ This fine stylish: horse shows great substance, combined with quality, and is admirably adapted to get race horses, caariage horses, hunters,. or; hacks. Although an accident prevented him racing himself, all his family have distinguished themselves on the turf ; and the recent high prices brought by Mr Gerard’s yearlings in Adelaide show the estimation in which the Rapid Bay stud is held. During the time Tregeagle has been in Australia ho has produced many first-class horses, notably Device, winner of the Nursery Handicap at the V.E.C. Meeting, and of the Shorts and Maidens at Adelaide, this fine filly never having been beaten ; Impudence, winner of the Adelaide Gup and Queen’s Hundred, 1876, and fourth in the last Melbourne Gup ; Superstition, winner of the Gawler and S.A.J.C. Autumn Handicap ; Cast Off and Lady Ferguson, winners of many races ; Nightingale, twice winner of Onkaparinga Cup, of the Adelaide Gift, and third in last Adelaide Cup ; Doctor and Presumption, winners of several races ; also of Lansdowne, the well-known steeplechase horse, and winner of the V.E.C. Steeplechase at the last Cup Meeting. No better bred horse than Tregeagle (the sire of War Eagle) has ever been imported to Australia, as his father Wild Dayrell, is the sire of Buccaneer, Talk o’ the Hills, Horror, &c., and grand sire i of Kisber, Formosa, Paul Jones, and many other first-class horses on the English turf. His dam, Silver Hair, is equally celebrated, being the dam of Silvio, the winner of the j English Derby, also of Gartenby Bill, a | great favorite for the same race two years ago. and a good winner in first-class company. His maternal granddam, England’s Beauty, was the dam of that good horse, The Bake, also of the Sydney Kingstone, sire of Kingsborough, Lecturer. Savanaka, and many other first-class horses, showing that the blood of 'Tregeagle has not only made its mark in the old country, but throughout the length and breadth: of. Australia. Ordeal (the dam of War Eagle) is equally as well-bred as the sire, being one of the last daughters of that , king r of stallions, old • Touchstone, whose blood flows in the veins of all the best- horses of the day. She, like Tregeagle, -was bred by the late Mr Blenkiron, of Middle Park, Eltham Kent, and imported to Victoria by the late Mr E. Tattersall, who sold her to Mr Gerrard, Her previous foal, Echo, ran a great horse in South Australia, winning many races, and was universally considered one of the best and grandest looking animals ever bred in Australia. Ordeal has no less than three strains of the Stout Orville blood in her veins, with one of Selim, both of which celebrated lines also, occur in Tregeale’s pedigree, as well as that of Touchstone and . Irish. : 15irclcatcher ; so that the "Whalebone and Eclipse blood is also well represented in War Eagle’s pedigree, whilst through Kingston he has a dash of The Walton blood. In fact War Eagle has a grand combination of the best strains of blood in the world, as a glance at his tabulated pedigree will testify, which with the liberal terms'at which his services are offered to the public, and his size, substance, and conformation, should strongly recommend him to the notice of breeders ; more especially as he is such a close relation to the celebrated Silvio, winner of the last English Derby. WELLINGTON 2nd. WELLINGTON 2ND is a bright bay, 5 years old ; of a most remarkably docile disposition. Has a splendid top. Is very muscular, and possesses plenty of bone and hair of the right quality; and for action and style there is not his equal in the district. Pedigree :— Wellington 2nd, sire the far-famed horse Old Wellington, is so well and favorably known in this district that he needs no comment ; and I need not say that all the best and staunchest horses on the coast are by Old Wellington, which is a fact that cannot be denied. Maggie, the dam of WELLINGTON 2ND, is by the old favorite and well known horse England’s Hope. Maggie’s dam Kate is by Sampson, and Jean, Kate’s dam was a Clydesdale marc imported from Tasmania. Wellington 2nd, as will be seen, is descended from some of the best Clydesdale blood ever imported to New Zealand. The above horses will travel between the Whcnuakura and Manawapou.
